I've got stubs and hubs from a 69 911 and a 915 tranny from a an 85. When I went to measure up the axle flanges from the 915 it matches the diameter of the stubs from the 69. Only thing is, is the 69 stubs mount the cv's with 4 bolts and 2 pins. What I was thinking is to have the 2 roll pin holes welded up and then drilled and tapped with the same size bolt hole as the other 4 bolts.
btw the 915 axle flanges and the stubs both use 10mm bolts. Has anyone done this type of modification and on a safety stand point is this something that would be avoided. |

Well, the late axles and hubs are expensive too, but, unlike the earlier 901 and early 915 stuff, the late parts will last virtually forever.
BTW, the late 915 axles have the stubs as an un-detachable part of the half-shaft. So, if you're looking for parts, get the 110mm flange parts with 10mm bolts that will have the stub assembled with the axle. You can use a stock 914 bearing with these parts, but two small spacers are necessary on the sides of both bearings to settle differences in the parts. I think this is the best way to go, and it's the way my car is set up. |
